EFFECT OF PILLING ON DIFFERENT SINGLE JERSEY WEFT KNITTED STRUCTURE (Pages : 17 - 22)

The samples were knitted on a modern single jersey circular knitting machine. The samples were dyed and finished. The test was carried out according to EN ISO 12945-2:2000 with Martindale abrasion and pilling tester. The experiment was carried out at the Beximco Textile Limited, Beximco Industrial Park, Chokroborty, Gagipur, Bangladesh to screen the different effect of pilling on single jersey plain, polo pique, single lacoste and double lacoste weft knitted structure during the period of January-April 2014. The results shows that stitch length and knit structures have the great influences on propensity to pilling. It is apparent that fabric with tight stitches shows the greater resistance to pilling than that of loose structures. Double lacoste fabrics have a lower propensity to pilling and Plain fabrics have the least resistance to pilling.Download
